Angry with those dark-hearted people who feel the need to drag down this great source of human energy and love to their mundane and dusty level. If they hate what the USA says and does, then they hate our chosen spiritual path. We are not perfect, we know that. But we know that this country, this way of life, democracy with all its faults, is the only way we can take responsibility and grow spiritually, emotionally, intelligently and as humanitarians today. We know no other way. Their way can never be our way. Let me illustrate that with one example of many. > > The one fact that Fundamental Muslims carry in their extreme faith that leaves me in complete noncomprehension as to what they actually feel every day of their life, is that they have banned music. To them, as someone who literally lives for music, I do not exist. To me, they are the 'Great Satan'. Take music from life and it becomes death. Not some glorious metaphorical death that transmogrifies into some warped notion of 'the Other Side', Heaven, Hell or what have you. It is a literal death. > > For when I die, if I don't hear music, I would prefer to go on living. And that, in my private spiritual process, would be hell. Sherry, may I first say that I am thrilled to see you post. Not a day has gone by that I haven't thought about you and thanked God that you are safe. And thanks for sharing this insight of Pete's with us. He is always interesting, and I am impressed with his perception here too. I've been reading about the Islamic faith and there is indeed a deep hatred of our spiritual path; that is how Laden has justified such horrendous action against our innocent people in NY, DC and PA, because to him we are abominable infidels and heathens.. Bin Laden DEFINATELY doesn't know the same God as I do! But I had no idea that they ban music - how tragic. As much as music means to me, it would indeed be hellish to be in a place where there was none. Sometimes music can be one of the purest interactions with the spiritual world and God himself ... its the one thing that reached my hard heart during the lowest time in my life. It's powerful, blessed stuff. TTFN Susan ------------------------------ End of oppositeview-digest V3 #266 **********************************
